Getting Started with the Illumio Console

Configuring Auth0 as an IdP

You can use Auth0 as an external Identity Provider (IdP) through the OIDC protocol support provided in Illumio Console.

Auth0 configuration

  1. Log in to your Auth0 account.

  2. In the left navigation pane, click Applications > Applications.

  3. Click Create Application.

  4. In the Create application window:

    1. Enter a Name for your Illumio instance.

    2. For Choose an application type, click Single Page Web Applications.

    3. Click Create.

  5. At the wizard page that asks What technology are you using for your web app? click React.

  6. At the wizard Settings tab for your new application, under the Basic Information section copy the Client ID and Domain values generated for your Illumio app. (The Domain value is the basis for your Issuer ID.)

  7. Scroll down to the Application URIs section, and enter the correct callback URL in the Allowed Callback URLs field.

  8. Click Save at the bottom of the page.

Finishing configuration at Illumio Console

After generating and copying the Client ID and Domain at the Auth0 website, return to the OIDC page in the Illumio Console, and complete the IdP configuration as described in Authenticating Users with OIDC.

  1. In Client ID, enter (or paste) the Client ID generated when configuring your web app on Auth0.

  2. In Issuer URL, enter (or paste) the Domain value that you also generated at Auth0, and prepend the value with "https://" and append the value with ".us.auth0.com".

    For example, a Domain value of my-1a2b3c4d5e6f7g is entered as https://my-1a2b3c4d5e6f7g.us.auth0.com in the Issuer URL field.
